From our Lay Leader

 

Dear Friends:
 
God is doing amazing things at Chapel Hill United Methodist Church! 
 
The year 2009 was a difficult one for many of us, but in spite of the challenges, 2009 was also a very vibrant year for the ministries of our church. We celebrated 10 years of Stephen Ministry and dedicated the 1,000th quilt lovingly made by our Ugly Quilt group. We participated more than ever in special causes like Relay for Life, CROP walk, flood buckets, back-to-school backpacks and supplies, and Undie/Sock Sunday. We inaugurated many new traditions, as in the last few months alone we enjoyed events like the UMW Spiritual Enrichment retreat, the Blessing of the Animals, the Children's Sabbath, a Dessert pitch-in, the Quilt Show, the Christmas Tea, and the Nativity celebration. Of course, we also faithfully continued to serve in our many, many ongoing ministries (too many to list here, but check out our new website for details). 
 
The year 2010 promises to be another dynamic time for us. We are going to build on the wonderful work that we are doing at Chapel Hill by offering our whole hearts to worship, expanding our outreach and mission activities, and providing new opportunities for faith development and fellowship. 
 
You are vital to the life of this congregation. We need your ideas, your talents, your energy, your passion, and yes, your financial support. We encourage you to explore the many ministries Chapel Hill offers, find one that stirs your spirit, and then dive right in. Where is God leading you?
 
Thank you for the many ways that you have served the kingdom of God in 2009. It is a joy to be in ministry with you here at Chapel Hill. Let us together eagerly anticipate the wonders that God has in store for us in 2010. 
 
Yours in Christ,
 
Kathy Ottinger
Lay Leader
